All but one sector within the index surged with Basic Materials adding up 2.16%, Consumer Goods surging 1.15% and Health Care sector increasing 0.90%. The only sector that shrank was Telecommunications with a 0.6% decrease. Bayer AG was the best performing company by advancing 3.56% as the nation's largest drug maker applied for permission to use one of its medicines to treat a new eye condition.

Only four companies dropped with shares of RWE AG tumbling the most, down 1.47%. The company inched lower to 31.82 euros.
